A
CHRONOLOGICA
——The
Unbelievable
Years
that
Defined
History
DID
YOU
KNOW…
In
105AD
paper
was
invented
in
China?
When
Columbus
discovered
the
New
World?
The
British
Museum
opened
in
1759?
CHRONOLOGICA
is
a
fascinating
journey
through
time,
from
the
foundation
of
Rome
to
the
creation
of
the
internet.
Along
the
way
are
tales
of
kings
and
queens,
hot
air
balloons…and
monkeys
in
space.
Travel
through
100
of
the
most
unbelievable
years
in
world
history
and
learn
why
being
a
Roman
Emperor
wasn’t
always
as
good
as
it
sounds,
how
the
Hundred
Years’
War
didn’t
actually
last
for
100
years
and
why
Spencer
Perceval
holds
a
rather
unfortunate
record.
CHRONOLOGICA
is
an
informative
and
entertaining
tour
into
history,
beautifully
illustrated
and
full
of
unbelievable
facts.
While
CHRONOLOGICA
tells
the
stories
of
famous
people
in
history
such
as
Thomas
Edison
and
Alexander
the
Great,
this
book
also
gives
ab
account
of
the
lives
of
lesser-known
individuals
including
the
explorer
Mungo
Park
and
sculptor
Gutzon
Borglum.
This
complete
but
brief
historical
collection
is
certain
to
entertain
readers
young
and
old,and
guaranteed
to
present
even
the
biggest
history
lover
with
something
new!
56.What?is?CHRONOLOGICA?according?to?the?next?

B
Before
birth,
babies
can
tell
the
difference
between
loud
sounds
and
voices.
They
can
even
distinguish
their
mother’s
voice
from
that
of
a
female
stranger.
But
when
it
comes
to
embryonic
learning（胎教）,
birds
could
rule
the
roost.
As
recently
reported
in
The
Auk:
Ornithological
Adrances,
some
mother
birds
may
teach
their
young
to
sing
even
before
they
hatch(孵化).
New-born
chicks
can
then
imitate
their
mom’s
call
within
a
few
days
of
entering
the
world.
This
educational
method
was
first
observed
in
2012
by
Sonia
Kieindorfer,a
biologist
at
Flinders
University
in
South
Australia,and
her
colleagues.
Femake
Australian
superb
fairy
wrens
were
found
to
repeat
one
sound
over
and
over
again
while
hatching
their
errs,
when
the
errs
were
hatched,
the
baby
birds
made
the
similar
chirp
to
their
mothers—around
that
served
as
their
regular
“feed
me!”
call.
To
find
out
if
the
special
quality
was
more
widespread
in
birds,
the
researchers
sought
the
red-backed
fairy
wren,
another
species
of
Australian
songbird.
First
they
collected
sound
data
from
67
nests
in
four
sites
in
Queensland
before
and
after
hatching.
Then
they
identified
begging
calls
by
analyzing
the
order
and
number
of
notes.
A
computer
analysis
blindly
compared
calls
produced
by
mothers
and
chicks,
ranking
them
by
similarity.
It
turns
out
that
baby
red-backed
fairy
wrens
also
emerge
chirping
like
their
moms.
And
the
more
frequently
mothers
had
called
to
their
errs,
the
more
similar
were
the
babies’
begging
calls.
In
addition,
the
team
set
up
a
separate
experiment
that
suggested
that
the
baby
birds
that
most
closely
imitated
their
mom’s
voice
were
rewarded
with
the
most
food.
This
observation
hints
that
effective
embryonic
learning
could
signal
neurological(神经系统的)
strengths
of
children
to
parents.
An
evolutionary
inference
can
then
be
drawn.”
As
a
parent,
do
you
invest
in
quality
children,
or
do
you
invest
in
children
that
are
in
need?”
Kleindorfer
asks.”
Our
results
suggest
that
they
might
be
going
for
quality.”
58.The
underlined
phrase
in
Paragraph
1
means“
”.
A.be
the
worst
B.be
the
best
C.be
the
as
bad
D.be
just
as
good
59.What
are
Kleindorfer’s
findings
based
on?
A.Similarities
between
the
calls
moms
and
chicks.
B.The
observation
of
fairy
wrens
across
Australia.
C.The
data
collected
from
Queensland’s
locals.
D.Controlled
experiments
on
wrens
and
other
birds.
60.Embryonic
learning
helps
mother
birds
to
identify
the
baby
birds
which
.
A.can
receive
quality
signals
B.are
in
need
of
training
C.fit
the
environment
better
D.make
the
loudest
call
C
A
new
commodity
brings
about
a
highly
profitable,fast-growing
industry,
urging
antitrust（反垄断）regulators
to
step
in
to
check
those
who
control
its
flow.
A
century
ago
,the
resource
in
question
was
oil.
Now
similar
concerns
ares
being
raised
by
the
giants（巨头）that
deal
in
data,
the
oil
of
the
digital
age.
The
most
valuable
firms
are
Google,
Amazon,
Facebook
and
Microsoft.
All
look
unstoppable.
Such
situations
have
led
to
calls
for
the
tech
giants
to
be
broken
up.
But
size
alone
is
not
a
crime.
The
giants'
success
has
benefited
consumers.
Few
want
to
live
without
search
engines
or
a
quick
delivery,
Far
from
charging
consumers
high
prices,
many
of
these
services
are
free
(users
pay,
in
effect,
by
handing
over
yet
more
data).
And
the
appearance
of
new-born
giants
suggests
that
newcomers
can
make
waves,
too.
But
there
is
cause
for
concern.
The
internet
has
made
data
abundant,
all-present
and
far
more
valuable,
changing
the
nature
of
data
and
competition.
Google
initially
used
the
data
collected
from
users
to
target
advertising
better.
But
recently
it
has
discovered
that
data
can
be
turned
into
new
services:
translation
and
visual
recognition,
to
be
sold
to
other
companies.
Internet
companies’
control
of
data
gives
them
enormous
power.
So
they
have
a
“God’s
eye
view”
of
activities
in
their
own
markets
and
beyond.
This
nature
of
data
makes
the
antitrust
measures
of
the
past
less
useful.
Breaking
up
firms
like
Google
into
five
small
ones
would
not
stop
remaking
themselves:
in
time,
one
of
them
would
become
great
again.
A
rethink
is
required—and
as
a
new
approach
starts
to
become
apparent,
two
ideas
stand
out.
The
first
is
that
antitrust
authorities
need
to
move
form
the
industrial
age
into
the
21st
century.
When
considering
a
merger(兼并),
for
example,
they
have
traditionally
used
size
to
determine
when
to
step
in.
They
now
need
to
take
into
account
the
extent
of
firms'
data
assets(资产)
when
assessing

Old
Problem,
New
Approaches
While
clean
energy
is
increasingly
used
in
our
daily
life,
global
warning
will
continue
for
some
decades
after
CO2
emissions（排放）peak.
So
even
if
emission
were
to
begin
decrease
today,
we
would
still
face
the
challenge
of
adapting
to
climate.
Here
I
will
stress
some
smarter
and
more
creative
examples
of
climate
adaptation.
When
it
comes
to
adaptation，it
is
important
to
understand
that
climate
change
is
a
process.
We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
adapting
to
a
new
standard,
but
to
a
constantly
shifting
set
of
conditions.
This
is
why
in
part
at
least,
the
US
National
Climate
Assessment
says
that:
“there
is
no
‘one-size
fit
all’
adaptation.”
Nevertheless,
there
are
some
actions
that
offer
much
and
carry
little
risk
or
cost.
Around
the
world
people
are
adapting
in
surprising
ways,
especially
in
some
poor
countries,
Floods
have
some
more
damaging
in
Bangladesh
in
recent
decades.
Mohammed
Rezwan
saw
opportunity
where
others
saw
only
disaster.
His
not-for-profit
organization
runs
100
river
boats
that
server
as
floating
libraries,
schools,
and
health
clinics,
and
are
equipment
with
solar
panels
and
other
communication
facilities.
Rezwan
is
creating
floating
connecticity（连体）
to
replace
flooded
roads
and
highways.
But
he
is
also
working
at
a
far
more
fundamental
level:
his
staff
people
how
to
make
floating
gardens
fish
ponds
prevent
starvation
during
the
wet
season.

are
being
taken.
Chewang.
Nophel
lives
in
a
mountainous
region
in
India,
where
he
is
known
as
the
Ice
Man.
The
loss
of
glaciers(冰川)
there
due
to
global
warming
represents
an
enormous
threat
to
agriculture.
Without
the
glaciers,
water
will
arrive
in
the
rivers
at
times
when
it
can
damage
crops.
Norphel’s
inspiration
come
from
seeing
the
waste
of
water
over
winter,
when
it
was
not
needed.
He
directed
the
wasted
water
into
shallow
basins
where
it
froze,
and
was
stored
until
the
spring.
His
fields
of
ice
supply
perfectly
timed
irrigation(灌溉)
water.
Having
created
nine
such
ice
reserves.
Nophel
calculates
that
he
has
stored
about
200,
000m3
of
water.
Climate
change
is
a
continuing
process,
so
Norhel’s
ice
reserves
will
not
last
forever.
Warming
will
overtake
them.
But
he
is
providing
a
few
years
during
which
the
farmers
will,
perhaps,
be
able
to
find
other
means
of
adapting.
Increasing
Earth’s
reflectiveness
can
cool
the
planet.
In
southern
Spain
the
sudden
increase
of
greenhouses
(which
reflect
light
back
to
space)
has
changed
the
warming
trend
locally,
and
actually
cooled
the
region.
While
Spain
as
a
whole
is
heating
up
quickly,
temperatures
near
the
greenhouses
have
decreased.
This
example
should
act
as
an
inspiration
for
all
cities.
By
painting
buildings
white,
cities
may
slow
down
the
warming
process.
In
Peni,
local
farmers
around
a
mountain
with
a
glacier
that
has
already
fallen
victim
to
climate
change
have
begun
painting
the
entire
mountain
peak
white
in
the
hope
that
the
added
reflectiveness
will
restore
the
life-giving
ice.
The
outcome
is
still
far
from
clear,
But
the
World
Bank
has
included
the
project
on
its
of
‘100
ideas
to
save
the
planet”.
More
ordinary
forms
of
adaptation
are
happening
everywhere.
A
friend
of
mine
owns
an
area
of
land
in
western
Victoria.
Over
five
generations
the
land
has
been
too
wet
for
cropping.
But
during
the
past
decade
declining
rainfall
has
allows
him
to
plant
highly
profitable
crops.
Farmers
in
many
countries
are
also
adapting
like
this—either
by
growing
new
produce,
or
by
growing
the
same
things
differently.
This
is
common
sense,
But
some
suggestions
for
adapting
are
not.
When
the
polluting
industries
argue
that
we’ve
lost
the
battle
to
control
carbon
pollution
and
have
no
choice
but
to
adapt,
it’s
a
nonsense
designed
to
make
the
case
for
business
as
usual.
Human
beings
will
continue
to
adapt
to
the
changing
climate
in
both
ordinary
and
astonishing
ways.
But
the
most
sensible
form
of
adaptation
is
surely
to
adapt
our
energy
systems
to
emit
less
carbon
pollution.
After
all,
if
we
adapt
in
the
way,
we
may
avoid
the
need
to
change
in
so
many
others.

请阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Population
Change
Why
is
the
world’s
population
growing?
The
answer
is
not
what
you
might
think.
The
reason
for
the
explosion
is
not
that
people
have
been
reproducing
like
rabbits,
but
that
people
have
stopped
dropping
dead
like
flies.
In
1900,
people
died
at
the
average
age
of
30.By
2000
the
average
age
was
65.But
while
increasing
health
was
a
typical
feature
of
the
20th
century,
declining
birth
rate
could
be
a
defining
one
of
the
21st.
Statistics
show
that
the
average
number
of
births
per
woman
has
fallen
from
4.9
in
the
early
1960s
to
2.5
nowadays.
Furthermore,
around
50%
of
the
world’s
population
live
in
regions
where
the
figure
is
now
below
the
replacement
level(i.e.2.1
births
per
woman)and
almost
all
developed
nations
are
experiencing
sub-replacement
birth
rate.
You
might
think
that
developing
nations
would
make
up
the
loss(especially
since80%
of
the
world’s
people
now
live
in
such
nations),
but
you’d
be
wrong.
Declining
birth
rate
is
a
major
problem
in
many
developing
regions
too,
which
might
cause
catastrophic
global
shortages
of
work
force
within
a
few
decades.
A
great
decline
in
young
work
force
is
likely
to
occur
in
China,
for
instance.
What
does
it
imply?
First,
China
needs
to
undergo
rapid
economic
development
before
a
population
decline
hits
the
country.
Second,
if
other
factors
such
as
technology
remain
constant,
economic
growth
and
material
expectations
will
fall
well
below
recent
standards
and
this
could
invite
trouble.
Russia
is
another
country
with
population
problems
that
could
break
its
economic
promise.
Since
1992
the
number
of
people
dying
has
been
bigger
than
that
of
those
being
born
by
a
massive
50%,Indeed
official
figures
suggest
the
country
has
shrunk
by
5%
since
1993
and
people
in
Russia
live
a
shorter
life
now
than
those
in
1961.Why
is
this
occurring?
Nobody
is
quite
sure,
but
poor
diet
an
above
all
long-time
alcoholism
have
much
to
do
with
it.
If
current
trends
don’t
bend.
Russia’s
population
will
be
about
the
size
of
Yemen’s
by
the
year
2050.
In
the
north
of
India,
the
population
is
booming
due
to
high
birth
rates,
but
in
the
south,
where
most
economic
development
is
taking
place,
birth
rate
is
falling
rapidly.
In
a
further
twist,
birth
rate
is
highest
in
poorly
educated
rural
areas
and
lowest
in
highly
educated
urban
areas.
In
total,
25%
of
India’s
working-age
population
has
no
education.
In
2030,
a
sixth
of
the
country’s
potential
work
force
could
be
totally
uneducated.
One
solution
is
obviously
to
import
foreign
workers
via
immigration.
As
for
the
USA,
it
is
almost
unique
among
developed
nations
in
having
a
population
that
is
expected
to
grow
by
20%
from
2010-2030.
Moreover,
the
USA
has
a
track
record
of
successfully
accepting
immigrants.
As
a
result
it’s
likely
to
see
a
rise
in
the
size
of
its
working-age
population
and
to
witness
strong
economic
growth
over
the
longer
term.

challenges
from
the
modern
market.
A.having
developed
B.being
developed
C.

D.

21.
考查非谓语动词。brands是逻辑主语，和develop是主谓关系，所以用现在分词，表示伴随状况；再根据“over
centuries”可知，应该使用现在分词的完成式，故选A。
22.

the
teachers,the

not
overcome
her
difficulty.
A.It

/Should/
Had
I...，故选B。

widely
reviewed
and
highly
praised,strengthened
Dickens’
status
as
a
leading
novelist.
A.is
B.are
C.was
D.were
24.
考查定语从句的主谓一致。先行词是Great
Expectations，“Great
Expectations”是书名，看做单数，所以定语从句的谓语也要使用单数形式；根据“strengthened”可知，“被广泛阅读和得到高度评价”发生在过去，故选C。

to
$20,
half
of_________it

A.
that
B.
which
C.
what
D.
how
26.
考查同位语和宾语从句。“half
of_________it
used
to
charge”是$20的同位语，即原来价格的一半是现在的$20；另外，of后跟名词或名词短语构成介宾短语，所以，这里是宾语从句；宾语从句中的charge后面缺少宾语，所以用what来引导宾语从句，并充当宾语从句的宾语，故选C。
27.

back
to
see
if
he_________.
A.
was
being
followed
B.
was
following
C.
had
been
followed
D.
followed
27.
考查宾语从句和时态。he和follow是动宾关系，即他被别人跟踪，排除B/D；根据句意“在匆忙赶回家的路上，他从未回头看是否被跟踪”，用过去进行时最合适，故选A。
28.

CHRONOLOGICA
——The
Unbelievable
Years
that
Defined
History
DID
YOU
KNOW…
In
105AD
paper
was
invented
in
China?
When
Columbus
discovered
the
New
World?
The
British
Museum
opened
in
1759?
CHRONOLOGICA
is
a
fascinating
journey
through
time,
from
the
foundation
of
Rome
to
the
creation
of
the
internet.
Along
the
way
are
tales
of
kings
and
queens,
hot
air
balloons…and
monkeys
in
space.
Travel
through
100
of
the
most
unbelievable
years
in
world
history
and
learn
why
being
a
Roman
Emperor
wasn’t
always
as
good
as
it
sounds,
how
the
Hundred
Years’
War
didn’t
actually
last
for
100
years
and
why
Spencer
Perceval
holds
a
rather
unfortunate
record.
CHRONOLOGICA
is
an
informative
and
entertaining
tour
into
history,
beautifully
illustrated
and
full
of
unbelievable
facts.
While
CHRONOLOGICA
tells

such
as
Thomas
Edison
and
Alexander
the
Great,

book
also
gives
ab
account
of
the
lives
of
lesser-known
individuals
including
the
explorer
Mungo
Park
and
sculptor
Gutzon
Borglum.
This
complete
but
brief
historical
collection
is
certain
to
entertain
readers
young
and
old,and
guaranteed
to
present
even
the
biggest
history
lover
with
something
new!

【答案】B
B
Before
birth,
babies
can
tell
the
difference
between
loud
sounds
and
voices.
They
can
even
distinguish
their
mother’s
voice
from
that
of
a
female
stranger.
But
when
it
comes
to
embryonic
learning（胎教）,
birds
could
rule
the
roost.
As
recently
reported
in
The
Auk:
Ornithological
Adrances,
some
mother
birds
may
teach
their
young
to
sing
even
before
they
hatch(孵化).
New-born
chicks
can
then
imitate
their
mom’s
call
within
a
few
days
of
entering
the
world.
This
educational
method
was
first
observed
in
2012
by
Sonia
Kieindorfer,a
biologist
at
Flinders
University
in
South
Australia,and
her
colleagues.
Femake
Australian
superb
fairy
wrens
were
found
to
repeat
one
sound
over
and
over
again
while
hatching
their
errs,
when
the
errs
were
hatched,
the
baby
birds
made
the
similar
chirp
to
their
mothers—around
that
served
as
their
regular
“feed
me!”
call.
To
find
out
if
the
special
quality
was
more
widespread
in
birds,
the
researchers
sought
the
red-backed
fairy
wren,
another
species
of
Australian
songbird.
First
they
collected
sound
data
from
67
nests
in
four
sites
in
Queensland
before
and
after
hatching.
Then
they
identified
begging
calls
by
analyzing
the
order
and
number
of
notes.
A
computer
analysis
blindly
compared
calls
produced
by
mothers
and
chicks,
ranking
them
by
similarity.
It
turns
out
that
baby
red-backed
fairy
wrens
also
emerge
chirping
like
their
moms.
And
the
more
frequently
mothers
had
called
to
their
errs,
the
more
similar
were
the
babies’
begging
calls.
In
addition,
the
team
set
up
a
separate
experiment
that
suggested
that
the
baby
birds
that
most
closely
imitated
their
mom’s
voice
were
rewarded
with
the
most
food.
This
observation
hints
that
effective
embryonic
learning
could
signal
neurological(神经系统的)
strengths
of
children
to
parents.
An
evolutionary
inference
can
then
be
drawn.”
As
a
parent,
do
you
invest
in
quality
children,
or
do
you
invest
in
children
that
are
in
need?”
Kleindorfer
asks.”
Our
results
suggest
that
they
might
be
going
for
quality.”
58.The
underlined
phrase
in
Paragraph
1
means“
”.
A.be
the
worst
B.be
the
best
C.be
the
as
bad
D.be
just
as
good
【答案】B
59.What
are
Kleindorfer’s
findings
based
on?
A.Similarities
between
the
calls
moms
and
chicks.
B.The
observation
of
fairy
wrens
across
Australia.
C.The
data
collected
from
Queensland’s
locals.
D.Controlled
experiments
on
wrens
and
other
birds.
【答案】A
【解析】根据第二段“”可知，研究发现是对澳大利亚两种会鸟鸣的鸟儿进行了记录，根据第三段“the
researchers
sought
the
red-backed
fairy
wren,
another
species
of
Australian
songbird.”可知，研究人员并未在全澳洲范围展开调查；未对其它鸟类进行记录研究，排除D项。根据倒数第三段“A
computer
analysis
blindly
compared
calls
produced
by
mothers
and
chicks,
ranking
them
by
similarity.”可知，A项正确。
60.Embryonic

C
A
new
commodity
brings
about
a
highly
profitable,fast-growing
industry,
urging
antitrust（反垄断）regulators
to
step
in
to
check
those
who
control
its
flow.
A
century
ago
,the
resource
in
question
was
oil.
Now
similar
concerns
ares
being
raised
by
the
giants（巨头）that
deal
in
data,
the
oil
of
the
digital
age.
The
most
valuable
firms
are
Google,
Amazon,
Facebook
and
Microsoft.
All
look
unstoppable.
Such
situations
have
led
to
calls
for
the
tech
giants
to
be
broken
up.
But
size
alone
is
not
a
crime.
The
giants'
success
has
benefited
consumers.
Few
want
to
live
without
search
engines
or
a
quick
delivery,
Far
from
charging
consumers
high
prices,
many
of
these
services
are
free
(users
pay,
in
effect,
by
handing
over
yet
more
data).
And
the
appearance
of
new-born
giants
suggests
that
newcomers
can
make
waves,
too.
But
there
is
cause
for
concern.
The
internet
has
made
data
abundant,
all-present
and
far
more
valuable,
changing
the
nature
of
data
and
competition.
Google
initially
used
the
data
collected
from
users
to
target
advertising
better.
But
recently
it
has
discovered
that
data
can
be
turned
into
new
services:
translation
and
visual
recognition,
to
be
sold
to
other
companies.
Internet
companies’
control
of
data
gives
them
enormous
power.
So
they
have
a
“God’s
eye
view”
of
activities
in
their
own
markets
and
beyond.
This
nature
of
data
makes
the
antitrust
measures
of
the
past
less
useful.
Breaking
up
firms
like
Google
into
five
small
ones
would
not
stop
remaking
themselves:
in
time,
one
of
them
would
become
great
again.
A
rethink
is
required—and
as
a
new
approach
starts
to
become
apparent,
two
ideas
stand
out.
The
first
is
that
antitrust
authorities
need
to
move
form
the
industrial
age
into
the
21st
century.
When
considering
a
merger(兼并),
for
example,
they
have
traditionally
used
size
to
determine
when
to
step
in.
They
now
need
to
take
into
account
the
extent
of
firms'
data
assets(资产)
when
assessing
the
impact
of
deals.
The
purchase
price
could
also
be
a
signal
that
an
established
company
is
buying
a
new-born
threat.
When
this
takes
place,
especially
when
a
new-born
company
has
no
revenue
to
speak
of,
the
regulators
should
raise
red
flags.

61.Why
is
there
a
call
to
break
up
giants?
A.
They
have
controlled
the
data
market
B.
They
collect
enormous
private

C.
They
no

attention
to
firms’

antitrust
regulators
could
.
A.
kill
a
new

B.
avoid
the

【答案】D
D
Old
Problem,
New
Approaches
While
clean
energy
is
increasingly
used
in
our
daily
life,
global
warning
will
continue
for
some
decades
after
CO2
emissions（排放）peak.
So
even
if
emission
were
to
begin
decrease
today,
we
would
still
face
the
challenge
of
adapting
to
climate.
Here
I
will
stress
some
smarter
and
more
creative
examples
of
climate
adaptation.
When
it
comes
to
adaptation，it
is
important
to
understand
that
climate
change
is
a
process.
We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
adapting
to
a
new
standard,
but
to
a
constantly
shifting
set
of
conditions.
This
is
why
in
part
at
least,
the
US
National
Climate
Assessment
says
that:
“there
is
no
‘one-size
fit
all’
adaptation.”
Nevertheless,
there
are
some
actions
that
offer
much
and
carry
little
risk
or
cost.
Around
the
world
people
are
adapting
in
surprising
ways,
especially
in
some
poor
countries,
Floods
have
some
more
damaging
in
Bangladesh
in
recent
decades.
Mohammed
Rezwan
saw
opportunity
where
others
saw
only
disaster.
His
not-for-profit
organization
runs
100
river
boats
that
server
as
floating
libraries,
schools,
and
health
clinics,
and
are
equipment
with
solar
panels
and
other
communication
facilities.
Rezwan
is
creating
floating
connecticity（连体）
to
replace
flooded
roads
and
highways.
But
he
is
also
working
at
a
far
more
fundamental
level:
his
staff
people
how
to
make
floating
gardens
fish
ponds
prevent
starvation
during
the
wet
season.

Elsewhere
in
Asia
even
more
astonishing
actions
are
being
taken.
Chewang.
Nophel
lives
in
a
mountainous
region
in
India,
where
he
is
known
as
the
Ice
Man.
The
loss
of
glaciers(冰川)
there
due
to
global
warming
represents
an
enormous
threat
to
agriculture.
Without
the
glaciers,
water
will
arrive
in
the
rivers
at
times
when
it
can
damage
crops.
Norphel’s
inspiration
come
from
seeing
the
waste
of
water
over
winter,
when
it
was
not
needed.
He
directed
the
wasted
water
into
shallow
basins
where
it
froze,
and
was
stored
until
the
spring.
His
fields
of
ice
supply
perfectly
timed
irrigation(灌溉)
water.
Having
created
nine
such
ice
reserves.
Nophel
calculates
that
he
has
stored
about
200,
000m3
of
water.
Climate
change
is
a
continuing
process,
so
Norhel’s
ice
reserves
will
not
last
forever.
Warming
will
overtake
them.
But
he
is
providing
a
few
years
during
which
the
farmers
will,
perhaps,
be
able
to
find
other
means
of
adapting.
Increasing
Earth’s
reflectiveness
can
cool
the
planet.
In
southern
Spain
the
sudden
increase
of
greenhouses
(which
reflect
light
back
to
space)
has
changed
the
warming
trend
locally,
and
actually
cooled
the
region.
While
Spain
as
a
whole
is
heating
up
quickly,
temperatures
near
the
greenhouses
have
decreased.
This
example
should
act
as
an
inspiration
for
all
cities.
By
painting
buildings
white,
cities
may
slow
down
the
warming
process.
In
Peni,
local
farmers
around
a
mountain
with
a
glacier
that
has
already
fallen
victim
to
climate
change
have
begun
painting
the
entire
mountain
peak
white
in
the
hope
that
the
added
reflectiveness
will
restore
the
life-giving
ice.
The
outcome
is
still
far
from
clear,
But
the
World
Bank
has
included
the
project
on
its
of
‘100
ideas
to
save
the
planet”.
More
ordinary
forms
of
adaptation
are
happening
everywhere.
A
friend
of
mine
owns
an
area
of
land
in
western
Victoria.
Over
five
generations
the
land
has
been
too
wet
for
cropping.
But
during
the
past
decade
declining
rainfall
has
allows
him
to
plant
highly
profitable
crops.
Farmers
in
many
countries
are
also
adapting
like
this—either
by
growing
new
produce,
or
by
growing
the
same
things
differently.
This
is
common
sense,
But
some
suggestions
for
adapting
are
not.
When
the
polluting
industries
argue
that
we’ve
lost
the
battle
to
control
carbon
pollution
and
have
no
choice
but
to
adapt,
it’s
a
nonsense
designed
to
make
the
case
for
business
as
usual.
Human
beings
will
continue
to
adapt
to
the
changing
climate
in
both
ordinary
and
astonishing
ways.
But
the
most
sensible
form
of
adaptation
is
surely
to
adapt
our
energy
systems
to
emit
less
carbon
pollution.
After
all,
if
we
adapt
in
the
way,
we
may
avoid
the
need
to
change
in
so
many
others.

请阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Population
Change
Why
is
the
world’s
population
growing?
The
answer
is
not
what
you
might
think.
The
reason
for
the
explosion
is
not
that
people
have
been
reproducing
like
rabbits,
but
that
people
have
stopped
dropping
dead
like
flies.
In
1900,
people
died
at
the
average
age
of
30.By
2000
the
average
age
was
65.But
while
increasing
health
was
a
typical
feature
of
the
20th
century,
declining
birth
rate
could
be
a
defining
one
of
the
21st.
Statistics
show
that
the
average
number
of
births
per
woman
has
fallen
from
4.9
in
the
early
1960s
to
2.5
nowadays.
Furthermore,
around
50%
of
the
world’s
population
live
in
regions
where
the
figure
is
now
below
the
replacement
level(i.e.2.1
births
per
woman)and
almost
all
developed
nations
are
experiencing
sub-replacement
birth
rate.
You
might
think
that
developing
nations
would
make
up
the
loss(especially
since80%
of
the
world’s
people
now
live
in
such
nations),
but
you’d
be
wrong.
Declining
birth
rate
is
a
major
problem
in
many
developing
regions
too,
which
might
cause
catastrophic
global
shortages
of
work
force
within
a
few
decades.
A
great
decline
in
young
work
force
is
likely
to
occur
in
China,
for
instance.
What
does
it
imply?
First,
China
needs
to
undergo
rapid
economic
development
before
a
population
decline
hits
the
country.
Second,
if
other
factors
such
as
technology
remain
constant,
economic
growth
and
material
expectations
will
fall
well
below
recent
standards
and
this
could
invite
trouble.
Russia
is
another
country
with
population
problems
that
could
break
its
economic
promise.
Since
1992
the
number
of
people
dying
has
been
bigger
than
that
of
those
being
born
by
a
massive
50%,Indeed
official
figures
suggest
the
country
has
shrunk
by
5%
since
1993
and
people
in
Russia
live
a
shorter
life
now
than
those
in
1961.Why
is
this
occurring?
Nobody
is
quite
sure,
but
poor
diet
an
above
all
long-time
alcoholism
have
much
to
do
with
it.
If
current
trends
don’t
bend.
Russia’s
population
will
be
about
the
size
of
Yemen’s
by
the
year
2050.
In
the
north
of
India,
the
population
is
booming
due
to
high
birth
rates,
but
in
the
south,
where
most
economic
development
is
taking
place,
birth
rate
is
falling
rapidly.
In
a
further
twist,
birth
rate
is
highest
in
poorly
educated
rural
areas
and
lowest
in
highly
educated
urban
areas.
In
total,
25%
of
India’s
working-age
population
has
no
education.
In
2030,
a
sixth
of
the
country’s
potential
work
force
could
be
totally
uneducated.
One
solution
is
obviously
to
import
foreign
workers
via
immigration.
As
for
the
USA,
it
is
almost
unique
among
developed
nations
in
having
a
population
that
is
expected
to
grow
by
20%
from
2010-2030.
Moreover,
the
USA
has
a
track
record
of
successfully
accepting
immigrants.
As
a
result
it’s
likely
to
see
a
rise
in
the
size
of
its
working-age
population
and
to
witness
strong
economic
growth
over
the
longer
term.

The
box-office
income
of
Chinese
movies
witnessed
a
constant
increase
from
about
17
billion
yuan
in
2012
to
over
40
billion
in
2015.
However,
that
increase
slowed
down
in
2016.
The
reasons
behind
this
are
various.
The
fast
economic
development
before
2016
was
probably
the
most
powerful
engine
driving
the
constant
growth
in
the
box-office
income.
The
application
of
new
technologies
and
the
wide
appeal
of
movie
stars
could
also
account
for
the
increase.
However,
China
saw
a
decline
in
its
economic
growth
rate
last
year.
And
the
internet
increased
options
for
movie
lovers.
Consequently,
some
viewers
began
to
turn
away
from
cinemas,
leading
to
a
slower
growth.
China’s
economy
is
expected
to
grow
at
a
medium
speed
in
the
coming
years,
so
an
increase
is
possible
in
the
investment
in
the
movie
industry
and
the
number
of
quality
movies.
Therefore,
its
box-office
income
will
probably
enjoy
a
slight
increase.(150

As
is
indicated
in
the
graph,
the
box-office
income
of
Chinese
films
increased
constantly
from
2012
to
2015,
but
its
growth,
for
one
reason
or
another,
slowed
down
in
2016.
However,
the
film
market
may
witness
a
slowdown
in
the
near
future.
Cinemas
have
gradually
given
way
to
the
rise
of
the
internet
and
cellphones,
and
the
ticket
price
is
on
the
increase.
Therefore,
the
film
industry
should
make
greater
efforts
to
attract
more
viewers.(150
